In this episode of Curie, Matt covers three important topics shaping cancer care. A new study confirms that achieving MRD negativity early in AML is critical for long-term survival, reinforcing MRD’s growing role in treatment decisions. We then explore the hard truth about early-phase cancer trials, revealing that only 16.2% of phase 2 treatments ever gain FDA approval—what does this mean for patients enrolling in these studies? Finally, we examine the rapid expansion of Hospital-at-Home care, a model that could change oncology treatment, but also raises concerns about patient safety and healthcare equity. Tune in for the latest updates and insights.

In this episode of Curie, Matt covers three major developments in oncology. The FDA has approved datopotamab deruxtecan (Datroway) for HR positive, HER2 negative breast cancer, marking a new era for antibody-drug conjugates in this disease. A meta-analysis suggests that the timing of immunotherapy infusions may impact survival outcomes, raising questions about how circadian rhythms influence treatment response. Finally, a global analysis confirms that early-onset colorectal cancer is on the rise worldwide, challenging current screening guidelines and prompting discussions on prevention strategies. Tune in for the latest insights shaping cancer care.

In this episode of Curie, Matt breaks down three major updates in oncology. ASCO has released updated guidelines for advanced ovarian cancer, emphasizing primary cytoreductive surgery over neoadjuvant chemotherapy when feasible. The Mammo-50 trial challenges the standard of annual mammographic surveillance for breast cancer survivors over 50, showing that less frequent screening is non-inferior. Finally, the eNRGy trial confirms the efficacy of zenocutuzumab in treating NRG1 fusion-positive cancers, a rare but actionable oncogenic driver in NSCLC and pancreatic cancer. Tune in for expert insights into how these findings are shaping cancer care.
